Arms Could Knockout the Competition for Nintendo Switch | Hardcore Gamer

Hardcore Gamer: Nintendo had a few surprises saved up for the big Switch event. We knew a couple of big name games would appear but did not expect some of the smaller, in-house products. One of which is a brand new IP titled Arms. The general premise of the game is to duke it out with an opponent similar to boxing.

This game looks like trash, who would pay $60 for a game that looks like it should be a free phone game!

This game looks terrible. It's not going to do anything for Nintendo.

Say what you will. ARMS could be another Splatoon success wise. People said Splatoon wasn't gonna sell more than 600k. Went on to sell more than 4m.

That's because splatoon looked and was good. Anyone who said splatoon didn't look like a cool new IP when it was revealed were lying to themselves. However ARMS just looks plain awful.

Nintendo Select: 5 Switch Games That Deserve A Second Chance

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "The Nintendo Switch has been one Nintendo’s most successful systems ever, both measured by the number of units sold and the quality of its titles, but if there’s one thing this generation has been missing it would have to be the Nintendo Selects line, bringing existing titles that had paid their dues back at bargain prices. With the Switch now entering its twilight years, and there being few new titles in store for the foreseeable future, what better time could there be to bring back this tried-and-true tradition? While the actual realization of it may be doubtful given how rigid both hardware and software prices have become in recent years, that only gives us all the more reason to dream up a hypothetical lineup of our own.

For this article the specific focus will not be on those massive multi-million evergreens that the lineup would no doubt contain a few of to cement its value, but instead on games that for one reason or another fell short of their full potential the first time around and deserve a second chance to reach more players at an affordable price. Let’s get started."

I really want Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, can't believe that hasen't been ported. I'm playing Skyward Sword at the moment and I'm almost finished, but it's so long and the controls are so bad, even without motion. Astral Chain is fantastic though, they should make a sequel.

A bunch of Nintendo Switch games just got the same patch, but no one’s quite sure why

ARMS has received its first update in five years, but we'd prefer if it got a sequel

I got the same for Splatoon 2. Nintendo's release notes should be more detailed. Interesting.
